Hi Guys,

Here is another WWII Japanese aicraft in my collection.

Mitsubishi J2M3 "Raiden", (81-124, s/n 3008) 381st Kokutai, captured Dewey Boulevard, Manila, Philippines on Feb 1945. Built it how it looked like when it was still in flying condition.

Built OOB and used Gunze Mr. Color paints.









Cheers,
Tony

Hello Tony

very nice model.

Maybe try to take photos outside in the future or organize some better lighting. the flash covers most of the details and it seems you have done a great job!

all the best

Hi Tony,

Very nice finish indeed, a great example of subtle shading and weathering
